TOTALS:1,416cals; Fat-34g (23%); Carbs-180g (46%); Protein-105g (31g)....Well, I've figured out w/this diet I'm following that my Carbs are a little high and my protien is lacking....I'll "tweak" it a little today, and see if that works to fix the macros. Oh and I couldn't find V8 drinks in FitDay so I had to add a few different drinks to try to make it as close to V8 as possible.

Calories are looking MUCH better!!! I little more protein and a little less carbs wouldn't hurt, but keep those calories there!! How are you feeling with more calories???

Thanks IP. I'm feeling a little better w/more cals, but sometimes I have a hard time eating it all, I feel like if I eat anymore I'm going to "pop!" I am a little nervous thinking that it'll cause me to gain though.

Your body will adjust. I know when I started eating like I do I would be like oh man and barely could finish most of my meals. Now I get shakey and *itchy if I don't eat or I'm late on a meal.

I totally felt this way when I started the Shadow plan last year and then when I saw the weight coming off I was like Huh??? I mean I felt full and had that "Gosh I must have added a few pounds feeling"... Give it a few weeks and just monitor your results!

^^ Ladies go it covered. Your body will adjust ... the weight (fat) will come off if you are feeding it properly, training, being honest with your portions/cheats and of course, have no medical issues hindering you progress.

Keep at it A! I understand the cause for celebration but I see that red wine, and last 2 nights of cake

 

[Afgrl]

I know, the wine & cake weren't the best choices. I had to snap myself into check about it too. Thanks everyone for helping me gain the confidence I lack by checking in and cracking the 'ol whip out. HA HA HA. I'll keep everyone posted on my progress, too.
